Mobile gamers, stupid, walking players, give me their ears. The spinal cord (a reputation for the spinal cord) has finally launched a new mobile controller for the public. The spinal cord Pro is hit by the shelf today, which has new features and a slightly growing size in your remote -playing hands.
On paper, this is a really interesting news as many of us are waiting for this manufacturer. It has been five years since the onset of the spinal cord, and since then, much cheaper, better mobile controllers have arrived. Although I am very excited to hear about a new product of this brand, I am not sure Backbone Pro is what I was expecting. Launchess LT, it will return you 9 169.99 / £ 169.99, which is more than a full -size, custom controllers cost. Although the new pro model is larger than original, it is not much, as you will see from the pictures.
On the bright side, there are two back buttons on the pro model, which integrate within the eyes. It was the design that I was expecting more and more, as a small controller could really benefit from the back buttons that prevent the work of the very strange thumb. Backbone says its new pro -controller has been re -designed from the ground up, but it plays a very familiar look as a whole. The grips have been increased slightly, hopefully more rooms will be given to our pancakes. The grips also have a slightly loser, hoping that it will make it more aergonomic overall.
If the new design spares you a bit, instead of some new features you can like. Along with regular handheld format, we know for all mobile controllers, the backbone will also be able to connect via Bluetooth, possibly working as a PC controller. This opens the price of the spinal supporter a bit, as you can use it more as a multi -platform controller against the simply being thrown into your bag.
Thanks to the Backbone app and the user interface, you can regenerate every button on the backbone pro and create tailored control profiles. Talking about the app, the backbone+ users will have access to the free sports rotating library, which will increase the features for the new controller.
Since this is a new product, there is no word about launching a playstation or Xbox licensed version. This can cause problems for PS5 players in search of upgrades, because without this licensing, remote play cannot be possible. The original spinal cord a controllers cannot use the PS5 remote play, for example, and in addition to the Gamer G8 Galileo, there are not many non -licensed mobile pads that it can do. However, cloud streaming on the Xbox Game Pass should be possible.
Are the spinal supporters worth it?
If you ask me, we have a lot to thank Backbone One. The way I see it, this brand eliminated the wave of mobile controllers we have in the market today. I think a remote drama, the actual Nintendo Switch’s rise, was bound to be popular. The spinal cord was the first brand that brought it into the mainstream. The problem is that now mobile controllers have increased, and many rivals have improved the spinal cord formula in terms of relief, use and functionality by receiving low cost.
The cost of Gamesier G8 is $ 100 less than the new spine pro, and its long grip and more convenient, thanks to the release of the USB-C connector, easily stole the first position on our mobile controller leader board. The SCUF nomads lead directly to the backbone, with similar size but more comfortable, symmetrical thumbs sticks. It costs $ 99. Asus ROG Tyson has excellent back pedals and can fold the FOLD with more convenience than Backbone One or Pro. It costs 9 109.99. Roger Cashi Ultra and Yellow Wagabond both offer a full -size feeling with additional functionality and hall sensor sticks. They are probably the most premium options in the market, and their cost is less than the backbone pro.
Recently. , I’m not sure that the spine Pro works enough to guarantee the price in a market that has already left behind at a cheap price. For the Xbox, Vector Pro BFG is my current favorite controller in the shelf for any platform. It has a modular design, four back button, and all of you. Its cost is like a backbone pro, and I know who I will invest instead.
